A “Queer. Black. Fat-positive dietitian” from California is on a mission to stop the war on ultra-processed food because she believes that opposing junk food means opposing “people of color” (POC).

Jessica Wilson, MS, RD, has apparently convinced herself that unhealthy eating is a normal part of being a POC, and that those who suggest healthier whole food-based diets are guilty of racism.

TIME wrote a piece about how Wilson was irked by the 2023 release of Ultra-Processed People, a book by Dr. Chris van Tulleken that highlighted how a junk food diet wrecked his health.

“What happened to me is exactly what the research says would happen to everyone,” van Tulleken wrote about how his health declined after switching to a diet mostly composed of chips, soda pop, bagged bread, frozen food and cereal.

Eating all that junk caused van Tulleken to feel sluggish and gain weight. His hormone levels got thrown all out of whack and MRI scans showed that even his brain got damaged.

Wilson, however, feels as though van Tulleken is exaggerating and over-sensationalizing what the junk food did to his body because she feels that processed foods are a normal part of people’s lives, as least the lives of POC whom she says tend to eat more junk food than white people.

Non-whites tend to have lower incomes and live in “food deserts” where there are fewer grocery stores carrying fresh produce and a whole lot more fast-food joints that serve fried, ultra-processed food-like substances.

Wilson claims that this differentiation between healthy foods and unhealthy foods is a form of “food apartheid” that makes no sense to her.

“How can this entire category of foods be something we’re supposed to avoid?” she asked.

Full meals of ultra-processed foods made Wilson feel better

Wilson conducted her own experiment to contrast with that of van Tulleken. She traded out her haphazard attempts at eating whole foods randomly throughout the day with set meals comprised of more ultra-processed things.

Instead of eating morning eggs, for instance, Wilson opted for soy chorizo. She also swapped out of homemade “thrown-together” lunches with Trader Joe’s ready-to-eat tamales. Then there was the cashew “milk” yogurt with jam, Costco pupusas, and chicken sausage with veggies.

After making the switch to a more ultra-processed diet, Wilson claims she started to feel better with less anxiety and more energy. She drank less coffee and felt better than she had before, which she attributes to eating full meals with more calories.

Unlike van Tulleken, Wilson did not get any bloodwork done to see what her dietary changes did to her body. She simply reported that she “felt better” after doing her experiment.

“I finally understand where this sudden push in defense of ultra-processed foods comes from: the desire of the psychopaths to replace meat and other healthy foods with fake products,” one commenter wrote.

“The obvious criticism would be that such artificial food-like products are ultra-processed garbage, and thus ultra-processed foods suddenly have to become ‘healthy.’ Duh.”

The other obvious answer as to why ultra-processed food is suddenly in vogue among the pro-fat crowd is because it is cheap and generates large profits for the same multinational corporate interests that came up with the so-called “food pyramid.”

“This is to keep the masses sick and weak,” wrote another.

“Four out of five eugenicists surveyed prefer ultra-processed foods,” joked another. “The fifth died from myocarditis.”
